Fun With Friends!

Weston has such a good time playing with all of his daycare buddies.

I LOVE watching him interact with other kiddos.

He has the best time and I know that he is learning so much from being around other little ones.

Cinnamon Raisin Bagels w/Cream Cheese - YUM!

Mercy I love this BABY!!!

Now A Blonde Boogity???

Sooooo, the previous blog posting is all about how RED Weston's hair is sometimes. Well....NOW look at our little chameleon???? After just a few days of being out in the beautiful spring sunshine, he is blonde as can be on the sides of his head. You can still see some red on top, but the sides are nearly white!

CrAzY, but beautiful!

Yes, he is eating lunch with his toothbrush. I've told you how obsessed he is with that thing!

This was hilarious. Weston would scoop up his mandarin oranges with his toothbrush - using it like a spoon. Good thing we have LOTS of extra toothbrushes!

I LOVE YOU MY SILLY LITTLE BLONDIE!

Our Red Head With Bed Head!

Sometimes, Scooty's hair looks SO red - like in the picture below.

Obviously, he just woke up from his nap with a serious case of bed head.

Just look at those crazy cowlicks - ha!

Uncle Braydon and Aunt Chloe came for a visit. While they ate their lunch, Weston sat on the table and kept us all very entertained!

He just LOVED Chloe's plastic salad container!

Peek A Boo!

Thanks SO much for coming to see us, Uncle Braydon & Chloe!

We love you!

Boogity Bean's Birthday Dinner!

We had dinner at Rio Mambo to celebrate Weston's birthday!

For months, Bailey and I had been going back and forth trying to decide if a big birthday bash was the thing to do for Scooty's special day or rather just something very simple. We opted for the simple route, since Scoots would be too young to really "get" the concept of a birthday party anyway. I'm so glad we made that choice, because I think his birthday was just PERFECT!!!

Rio Mambo is our "go to place" for special family events here in Ft. Worth. In San Antonio, it was always Alamo Cafe and we hope to make that our "go to place" again soon! Rio Mambo, however, is delicious and has certainly been the setting for many a good time!

Mommy & Weston

Uncle Brenner & his "Budzy"
Sadly, Uncle Braydon and Chloe both had to work - we missed them!

The Archers!

Bean being silly imitating his Grandpa.

Seated at the restaurant and ready for chow!

Pondering the menu!

Taking a shy sneak peek at other diners!

Such a happy Birthday Boy!

Our professional chip eater - seriously, the child only has 3.5 teeth - all on bottom, yet can still eat anything that isn't nailed down. Just look at the precise way he holds that chip and very carefully bites off a small piece - love it!

Oh yeah, baby.......bring on the tortillas!

Oops......hold up just one little second - can't forget the queso!

Yet again displaying his brilliance - the boy is a genius at tortilla dipping!

All the waiters singing "Happy Birthday". Weston thought it was SO fun!

HELLO birthday cake!

Granny whispering lots and lots of birthday wishes and I love yous!

Let's just ignore Granny's thinning hair, shall we??? For those of you who know my parents, you know that my hair doesn't stand a chance at being lush. Boo.

After dinner, it was off to Scooty's house to shoot a few hoops before present time!

Weston is a natural - he waltzes right up to the basketball goal and tosses the ball right into the basket. LOOK OUT, Tim Duncan!

Next, it was time for gifts. Mommy wanted jammies for Weston so we got him lots of those.

Bailey is obviously thrilled, but you can clearly see Scooty's typical "kid response" to clothes - BORING! He is desperately trying to slide out of Bailey's lap and head back to his basketball game with Uncle Brenner! So funny.

This particular pair of jammies did manage to catch Lishy's attention because there are sport balls all over them. He is pointing to a basketball. The boy is obsessed with anything sports related. Typical.

This extra fun box came from Weston's sweet Auntie Sharon, Auntie Cindy and cousins Kyndal and Katie! Weston loved al of the colorful stickers and couldn't wait to see what was inside!

This microphone is one of the MANY fun goodies in the box! Brian actually had the best time with it - or maybe Grandpa - both were acting like sports announcers etc.

Crazy boys.

Finally, Weston gets a turn...

Weston also got LOTS of sports balls, bubbles, a bathing suit and swim shirt, more jammies - THANKS SO MUCH, AUNT SHARON!

YIPPEE!!!! A new car from Grandpa & Granny!

Weson's very first Cozy Coupe!

Too bad Daddy, Mommy, Grandpa & Granny all had a few too many birthday cocktails to even THINK about trying to assemble that puppy - ha!

Right back to the sport balls.......this one is a mini basketball from Aunt Sharon!

And now.....soccer!

Finally.............MORE CAKE!

This one was full of chocolate ice cream goodness!

Another round of "Happy Birthday to You!!!"

Patiently waiting to dig in (notice the frosting all over his shorts!)

Yummy! Definitely worth the wait!

All done!

See ya! Can't wait to do this birthday gig thing again next year!
